Thunderstorms!

Friend in Scotland has just emailed me to say they have had some bad thunderstorms. Anyone else got them yet, looking outside at the moment and clouds have built up its very hot and muggy. Luckily none of my dogs seem to get bothered by storms so i,m not worried about them being scared. My daughter Jennifer is terrified of them has been since she was a tot. I remember when she was about three years old she was sitting on the toilet and there was a huge crash of thunder, she bolted from the toilet and kept running, leaving a little puddle from the toilet onto the landing and down the stairs. She,s thirteen now (no danger of her reading this i hope ) . Does anyone else hate thunderstorms or your dogs.

we had the storms at 3.30 this morning right through till 7.30 rain stopped at 10.30 can hear the odd rumble of thunder across the mountains but i dont think we are going to have any more my sister who is now 38 is terrified of thunder and lightning she hides under the stairs i love it and i love to watch the lightning seeing all the different colours and patterns in the sky

Seems to be quiet here, although its got very cold

Baking Hot Here - Wish it wasn't - Too hot to do anything

has been thundering where I am since about 8.30 this morning and is still going with bucket loads of rain......fingers crossed for sunshine again when the air clears.

We've got one going on right now. Started about 6am, quite a bad one, and is still hanging on in there - I love storms. It's also chucking it down, which is great news for my veggies

Had them here too at 6am but not too bad ,and still the odd rumble and lots of rain .....oooooh lovely cool air now

Rain just started here, no thunder yet though, suppose the gardens do need it Archaeopath

Been raining here all morning in Manchester, not too heavy yet.

It has been a nice morning here but now the sky is dark and looking dubious. It's waiting until the ambulance comes to take me to hospital!!!!
